Jazz Finland Live

"Land Of Real Men demonstrates an organic gathering of musicians at the top of their game." –All About Jazz

Ilmiliekki Quartet features some of the most highly-regarded Finnish jazz musicians and their music is reflective, dynamic, and melodic to the bone. The group recorded their latest album "Land Of Real Men" live at G Livelab last year and now the beloved jazz combo make their awaited return to the club.

Nujakka (scuffle) is an energetic trio which explores communication through music. Nujakkas music is based in free improvisation which blends together with pre-composed "pipe songs". Trios music has elements from the sorrow of Scandinavian folk music and from the rage of free jazz. Nujakka is on tour in spring 2020, and planning to record a studio album afterwards.

Guitarist, composer, improviser Guillaume Gargaud comes from Le Havre, France. His eloquent and expressive playing has been heard alongside dance and experimental cinema as well as in intimate duo formations with pianist Burton Greene and drummer Marc Edwards. Gargaud has visited Finland before quite recently: in April 2019 he collaborated with Helsinki-based contemporary group Korvat Auki Ensemble. In this concert, we hear his solo music in the natural acoustic environment of Kulttuuritalo Laikku’s music hall.

Guillaume Gargaud: acoustic guitar + Simo Laihonen: percussion
